You basically want dark, and some air-flow.

I dry mine in a closet. This one was falling over so was the first to go. Will fill this closet up and add a small fan. Temp and humidity are usually 68 and 55 respectively.
I only cut fans and leave the sugar leaves, hang for 7 days then to the cure bucket.

Here's my drying closet. Old cedar wardrobe with a PVC rack that has curtain hooks on it. Also has a tray with a 120m screen for a drying rack and dry-sifting keif. It folds out of the way to hang plants. Under the black dish-pan is an AC Infinity 120cfm 3-speed cabinet fan like for electronics cabinets sucking through the carbon filter.
Edited: The only air intake is that hole for the electric cord, and the fact that the doors aren't air-tight. Also, it's in the bedroom that my grow-closets are in, so the filtered exhaust gets refiltered when it goes through them.

That’s quite the drying setup you have there. Me gusta mucho.
I’d pop more beans for indoors, but just started some testers. I’ll have to wait til some of my GPS strains and bananas finish. I do have a blue cheese Buddha auto I’m going to throw outside soon.

Happy 420 everyone.
I finished trimming, I don't think this will dry in 24hrs. I weighed the largest bud just to see where it's at, I started off thinking I will be happy with 1oz dry per plant. How much will these dry by, 50% weight, 75%, 90%?

I see typically 60-75% reduction.

Rule of thumb I have always used is 80%. That's trimmed, but still on the stems. Dense buds will actually lose more weight %wise (weird right?) and take longer. So if you weigh the whole mess, multiply by .20 and that should be your dry weight give or take. That 65g top will dry to just under a half ounce

Mine was a "pop culture" mix-pack if you get how the strain names are all movie hero's

Got the furniture at a yardsale for $20. Cedar is supposed to help keep clothes from molding, figured it can't hurt for weed
I finally have all the gear in all the right places to have a nice 4-6 plant rotation going then this contest rolls around and I get stupid I'm up to 7 plants now 6 in flower, with 3 seeds I just dropped because I'm skunked out

Hopefully not another one bites the dust, if it goes on like that none will be left...
